Art After Dark is the Downtown Arts District’s semi-formal soiree for young professionals. This program was created to introduce young professionals (or the “young at heart”) to the Arts District and its mission through social interaction, arts engagement, and networking.

Guests will enjoy the celebration in a unique setting by strolling through CityArts’ six different galleries and Create Cafe. The evening’s festivities include interactive art experiences, meet & greet opportunities with special guest artists, live music, photo opportunities, a silent auction, craft cocktails, and gourmet lite bites from local restaurants!

A popular event in Downtown Orlando, Art After Dark has nearly tripled in size from its inaugural year. The 2021 event is guaranteed to SELL OUT!

The Downtown Arts District’s mission is to lead, stimulate, and guide the development of a vibrant, innovative arts and cultural district that enhances economic development in Downtown Orlando.
